Your EV Charger Installation Questions, Answered (FAQ)
How much does a Level 2 charger installation cost in Richmond?
The installation cost typically ranges from $750 to $2,000, depending on the charger's location relative to your electrical panel, the current capacity of your panel, and whether an upgrade is needed. We provide a firm quote after our initial assessment.
Will I need to upgrade my home's electrical panel?
It depends. Many homes, especially older ones, may have a 100-amp panel that is already near capacity. Our electrician will perform a load calculation to determine if your panel can safely handle the new circuit or if an upgrade is recommended.
How long does the installation take?
A standard installation where the panel has sufficient capacity and is located in the garage can often be completed in just a few hours.
Are there any rebates for installing an EV charger in Virginia?
Incentive programs can change. As of July 2025, many EV owners in Virginia can benefit from programs offered by Dominion Energy, as well as potential state and federal tax credits. We recommend checking the Dominion Energy website and the Virginia Department of Energy for the latest rebates.
